I have so many recipes bookmarked from so many
great food blogs out there but somehow or other I always seem to fall back on
Kalyn!
This Broccoli and Cheese Breakfast Casserole was inspired by
a recipe I found over on
Kalyn's Kitchen. I know you guys know who Kalyn is by now...
I think there is a fine line between
"healthy eating" and
"depriving yourself of foods you love".
There are a lot of "not so healthy" foods that I would never give up simply because the pleasure I get from eating them nourishes me on a whole different level than the simple science of micro and macro nutrients.
For instance...
As you read the title of this post you are probably thinking, "Summer Squash at the end of October? Hmmm, a little out of season, no?"
And to this I respond....
I'm not a
"coffee-all-day" kinda girl.
What I am is a
"one-really-good-cup-of-coffee-in-the-morning" kind of girl
(oh, the love I put into my morning brew!)
AND since
Katie has joined the tribe, my morning cup of coffee seems to be growing larger by the week!
So what does this all have to do with my
California Scramble?
I know from past experience that I am going to get a handful of "isn't the microwave a not so 'clean' way of making healthy food" questions/comments on this video, so I thought I would start by addressing this point...
Who likes to eat the same old leftovers again and again? Not me!
This video is all about ways to recreate your leftovers into a fresh new meal! Here a few things you want to keep in mind:
After showing you guys how to make
the perfect hard boiled egg last week, I figured I better share a clean and simple way to put them to good use!
Ahhhh...
the incredible, edible, egg! It's one of my favorites.
Quick. Easy. Nutritious. Versatile. Convenient. And let's be honest... pretty darn tasty too!
In this video I cover some of the basics you might want to know about eggs and egg whites.
As you know by now, I am a huge fan of Mexican food so starting the day off with
Breakfast Tacos is a sure way to put a smile on my face (and that's with out the margarita;).
What can I say, I've been making so many different types of Egg "Pizza's" lately, I just couldn't help but share another Egg "Pizza" flavor combination!
Hey guys... I'M BACK! Lot's of fun, long trip, happy to be home BUT most importantly... happy to be back in my kitchen with my knife and my cutting board! Man oh man, did I miss cooking!
Never underestimate an egg. Really. They are so darn versatile! I've become a big fan of eggs for dinner so when I was at my Yoga class last week and my favorite yoga teacher (Amy) in the whole world told me that she made my leek and potato tortilla (which is not posted) with the addition of smoked salmon I was not only flattered but I couldn't wait to get into the kitchen and give it a try!
Food is simple AND cooking is simple. It's that simple.
Of all of the cooking classes I have attended, all the cook books I have read, and all the cooking shows I've watched, there is one on going fact that seems to be repeated: Keep it Simple!
So here we go...another asparagus recipe! And you probably won't be suprised to hear me say that this is another super easy dish!
As far as the asparagus goes, all I did was steam it up. Which reminds me...
Mmmmm, mmmm, mmmm am I loving Quinoa!! I made a big bucket of it over the weekend and have been throwing it in to just about everything all week long.
When I saw this recipe over at Anticiplate, I just knew I was gonna have to give it a go.
So this one isn't so much a recipe as it is an idea.
Really you can use any veggies or any cheese that you have hanging out in the fridge, it's is less about the details and more about the big picture.
*updated from the archives.
As you may know, I am a big fan of "whole foods" and I think that whole eggs are a perfectly delicious and nutritious food. I love adding them to just about anything; breakfast, lunch, or dinner. But anytime I am trying to pull back on my calorie intake a bit without pulling back on flavor, I skip the yolks and stick to the whites.
